We review the ILC capabilities to explore the electroweak (EW) sector of the SM at high precision and the prospects of unveiling signals of BSM physics, either through the presence of new particles in higher-order corrections or via direct…
I review highlights of recent results in quark-flavor physics and heavy-quark spectroscopy from lattice QCD, with emphasis on $B$-meson decays and excited and exotic charmonium states.
Experiment shows that the top quark is far heavier than the other elementary fermions. This finding has stimulated research on theories of electroweak and flavor symmetry breaking that include physics beyond the standard model. Efforts to…
A review is given of recent developments in the physics of flavor. Current constraints on the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix are discussed and related to the recent measurements of epsilon'/epsilon, sin(2beta) and K+ -> pi+ nu nubar. A…
I sketch some pressing questions in several active areas of particle physics and outline the challenges they present for the design and operation of detectors.
The properties of strange quark matter and strange hadronic matter and their finite counterparts (strangelets and MEMOs) are reviewed. The production of strange matter in heavy-ion collision and the appearance of strange matter in neutron…
After a discussion of the hierarchy problem of the Fermi scale, we study the flavour and Higgs boson(s) phenomenology of new physics close to it, both in general and in the specific cases of Supersymmetry and composite Higgs models. First,…
In this decade, there are huge efforts to explore B-meson decays, which offer interesting probes to test the quark-flavour structure of the Standard Model and to search for signals of new physics. Exciting new perspectives for these studies…
In this lecture, I discuss measurements of the properties of the Higgs boson and related observables in the era of Higgs factories. This highly motivated experimental program is the challenge for the next generation of particle physicists.
Subjects of discussion Different scenarios Higgs window to a New Physics Anomalies in the interactions of gauge and Higgs bosons Some problems with t-quarks and MSSM. Some problems in QCD and hadron physics. By-product: Production of…
The subject of heavy flavour decays as probes for physics at and beyond the TeV scale is covered from the experimental perspective. Emphasis is placed on the more traditional Beyond the Standard Model topics that have potential for impact…
We present an overview of the present status and prospects for progress in electroweak measurements at future collider experiments leading to precision tests of the Standard Model of Electroweak Interactions. Special attention is paid to…
We present selected topics on heavy-light physics on the lattice in order to illustrate the current status of this field. In particular results concerning $f_B$, semileptonic decays, the decay $B \rightarrow K^*\gamma$ and heavy baryon…
The most recent beauty and charm results from the ZEUS and H1 collaborations are presented.
This essay explores the relations between aesthetics and motivation, primarily in quantum physics, focusing on the notions of play, beauty, and the joy of insight. The motivating role of these notions is examined both historically among the…
In these lectures I briefly review the Higgs mechanism of electroweak symmetry breaking and focus on the most relevant aspects of the phenomenology of the Standard Model Higgs boson at hadron colliders, namely the Tevatron and the Large…
Progress in charm physics has been prodigious over the last twenty years; it comes both from fixed target and collider experiments, and can guide us toward future investigations. To fully exploit the power of flavor physics, complications…
I discuss the theoretical and empirical status of $b \to s \gamma$, $b \to s \ell^+ \ell^-$ decays, as well as their future prospects. I emphasize those observables in rare $b$-decays which can potentially establish new physics and…
I briefly review the Higgs sector in the Standard Model. After summarizing the properties of the Higgs boson, I will discuss the prospects for discovering this particle at the present colliders LEP2 and Tevatron and at the next generation…
Supersymmetry is one of the most plausible extensions of the Standard Model, since it is well motivated by the hierarchy problem, supported by measurements of the gauge coupling strengths, consistent with the suggestion from precision…
